How does the pressure exerted by a liquid vary with direction and depth?
The pressure exerted by a liquid increases with depth. This is known as hydrostatic pressure and is directly proportional to the density of the liquid. The pressure variation with direction is isotropic, meaning it is the same regardless of the direction taken in the liquid.
Would you expect the the pressure exerted by water to be greater or less than the pressure exerted by the same amount of air?
water is more dense than air and it has atmospheric pressure also pushing down on it to make it have greater pressure than air.
The force on an area from the push of air is called?
The measure of the force exerted by air molecules on a surface per unit area is air pressure.
Is air pressure a noun?
Yes. The term is a compound noun, and both air and pressure are nouns. Air pressure is the measure of the force exerted by the weight of the atmosphere pushing down on the Earth.
The measure of force with which the air molecules are pushing on a surface?
it is AIR PRESSURE
In which direction is air pressure?
Air pressure is exerted in all directions.
What direction is air pressure exerted in?
In all directions.
In which direcion is air pressure exerted?
The air pressure is exerted in the direction of the air flow. But this is subjected to the Boyle's law. So Boyle's law is correct. You have add the force exerted by the speed of the air to it.
How does pressure exerted by a solid object on a surface differ from pressure exerted within a liquid or a gas?
The pressure exerted by a solid object is in only one direction.
How does pressure exerted by a solid object on a surface differ from pressure exerted within a gas or liquid?
The pressure exerted by a solid object is in only one direction.
Air pressure is the force exerted by?
air
The force exerted by the weight of a column of air on a surface is called?
Air Pressure The force exerted by the air above is called?
Why doesn't the pressure of the Earth's atmosphere collapse delicate surfaces on the surface such as flower petals?
Air pressure is exerted in all direction, and on both the outsides and insides of objects
What is the force exerted by air in all directions?
The force exerted by air in all directions is called air pressure. It is caused by the collisions of air molecules with surfaces. Air pressure is exerted equally in all directions and decreases as altitude increases.
What is the force exerted by air in a given are known as?
Air Pressure
How does pressure exerted by a solid object on a surface differ from pressure exerted within a liquid or gas?
In a liquid or gas the pressure at any given point is the same in all directions. In a solid the pressure can vary depending on direction. So, for example, the vertical pressure can be greater or less than the horizontal pressure.
Air pressure exerted equally on an object from different directions is?
Balanced Pressure
